In order to ensure that yum-builddep pulls in all the build requirements a generic ${kmodname}-devel-kmod provides line is added. This allows a version of the development headers to be included without requiring knowledge of the kernel version. This is important because unlike rpmbuild which does correctly expand the source rpm spec file, yum-builddep does not. Without this generic provides line mock which relies on yum-builddep is unable to automatically satisfy the dependency. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov> |

The Solaris Porting Layer (SPL) is a Linux kernel module which provides many of the Solaris kernel APIs. This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Solaris development closely and don’t want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives.
To build packages for your distribution:
$ ./configure
$ make pkg
To copy the kernel code inside your kernel source tree for builtin compilation:
$ ./configure --enable-linux-builtin --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-...
$ ./copy-builtin /usr/src/linux-...
Full documentation for building, configuring, and using the SPL can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
